Would that be Roel from Albania who's just got deported from the UK for raping a 12 year old girl and now trying to get back to the UK again. Do you have a link to an article? It was an Afghan.

Unfortunately the BBC won't learn
They want the programme presented by ethnic minorities, transgender people, disabled people etc and they won't stop until they have done that .
The irony is that is not what people from ethnic minorities, the transgender community and disabled people want. They would just like to see a decent programme the same as we all would.
But unfortunately the champagne socialist woke brigade at the BBC will just carry on banging out the same tune on their drum . Until everyone is bored senseless of it and have stopped buying a TV licence and stopped watching the BBC.
Just a matter of time before some internet / TV company realises you can do a Netflix with sports and produce a package showing this afternoons/ yesterday's football, golf , cricket etc and everyone can watch it without a TV licence.
The BBC will ultimately succeed in putting themselves out of business.That will be a massive achievement given that everything is rigged in their favour. But as the years go bye , they will do it.
It's impossible to succeed in the entertainment industry by refusing to entertain people and just relentlessly lecturing them.

They would just like to see a decent programme the same as we all would. Interesting that you think you speak for all of those people despite (assumingly) not being any of them. Also worth remembering is that there's a lot of people who aren't of those persuasions that also think equal representation and diversity is not a bad thing

I am speaking for myself , not anybody else And I am simply saying the average BBC viewer is in their 60s and in many cases watches it out of habit ( they have always watched it !). Give it another 20 years and they will be dead . I am saying it doesn't matter if they are transgender , ethnic minority , disabled or none of those things. Nobody turns the telly on to be lectured . Nobody succeeds in the entertainment industry by being a corporate body refusing to entertain people and just relentlessly lecturing them. Being told the same thing again and again by people claiming to know best is monumentally dull .People will increasingly turn off. www.theguardian.com/tv-and-radio/shortcuts/2017/mar/29/a-dying-habit-why-the-average-bbc1-viewer-is-61

Two things just to set you straight fella. 1. Linekar is definitely not a National Treasure, he never won any competition with England and is now a full on Bell-End. 2. The Asylum Policy is not racist. Unless you have another definition of Racism to that of the Oxford Dictionary.

The Asylum Policy is not racist. Unless you have another definition of Racism to that of the Oxford Dictionary. 1. Lineker has achieved far more in his career than these vile right-wing authoritarian Tory scum MPs like Braverman or the BBC chiefs. 2. A footy fanzine is the not best forum to argue the point on the definition of racism but I really pity people with politics like yours who are happy to ignore and dehumanise refugees fleeing war and persecution and let them drown in the Channel. In terms of the semantics, let’s just agree to disagree and move on. This is why Linkeker’s Twitter post is so important as it shines a spotlight on this appalling racist policy, the corruption of the BBC chiefs being Tory political appointees and another small step of this country going in the right-wing authoritarian direction, which is being led by an extreme right-wing faction of the Tory party. As Orwell said, ‘if liberty means anything at all it means the right to tell people what they do not want to hear. ' Shame that the truth is the first victim with this vile Tory government trying to smear, censor and silence critics like Lineker and many others who care about human rights.

The much bigger problems is the BBC board & management is full of party political appointees. Bigger and more important opportunities to get rid of them. Tim Davie and Richard Sharp should both be sacked They should be sacked for not fucking that champagne socialist lineker off years ago

Drinking champagne and holding socialist views, are by definition mutually exclusive. In fact socialists should be prevented, by law if necessary, from drinking champagne. They should know their place - mild and bitter, and perhaps a glass of cooking sherry at Christmas.

It isn’t like he isn’t walking the walk as well as talking the talk? Shame you’re not one for a spot of ‘context’.

It's as bad as any propaganda put out by the Chinese to their people! Not!

This storm is all about an ex footballer who thinks the world need to hear his political views..
I don't watch MOTD now mainly because I can't stand the smug, arrogant, self righteous and over paid Mr Linekar
So I sure as hell have no more interest in listening to his political views than he has of mine..
The sooner these celebs just get on with their jobs and not lecture everybody else the better...
Here's hoping for a new modern style of MOTD without a 30 yrs retired ex player.

Just out of interest what is wrong with sharing views? Additionally how is it different to posting on a forum on the internet? I thought it was considered a basic human right to have a voice? Deeply worried by the confused ideologies even within the microcosm of this thread.

You know for a fact do you - that people from ethnic minorities, transgender and disabled people don’t want to see people like themselves on the telly and certainly wouldn’t want to present a sports programme ?
